About 2000 people toe the line at UTMB every year.
What's even better is that 2 other people will be running this race, as well as another friend who will run the shorter TDS version of the event. With three other people coming (one who will be part of the medical team over there), we're 7 strong going to Europe!
It's going to be a great trip.
The Alps are amazing in pictures. I cannot wait to see them in real life!
We have already gotten a chateau only a couple of blocks from the start line in Chamonix for the entire week. All I need to do is plan for the several days before and after that week. I'm currently thinking Paris beforehand, and Geneva afterwards. I'll have to check the airfares and plan accordingly. Stay tuned!

Thoughts from the Farther Side...
I've been overly sensitive to the cold this winter. I just feel cold everywhere, even inside. I always have to fight the urge to get under the bed sheets and stay there until April.
The winter's cold has affected my training...a lot...this season. I wanted to do well in Rocky Raccoon next week, but I'll now only settle for a 24 hour finish...and qualifying for the Western States lottery again in December.
If it was possible to move to the surface of the sun, I would do it in a heartbeat.
Ahhh...home sweet home!
I'm still giddy about the UTMB thing though. Makes me feel like a kid again!
I'll be posting my 2015 schedule on this blog in a couple of days. It's going to be epic!
Stay warm my friends.
